I've heard good things from a friend about lighthttpd

Answer 3

Here's another alternative I wrote last year and and has served me well.

EmbedIO: https://github.com/unosquare/embedio

I use it mostly to create RESTful services on the Raspberry Pi (soft-float). It's MIT licensed too.

Answer 4

Consider taking a look at the System.Net.HTTPListener class. It implements a HTTP listener which makes it very easy to respond to HTTP requests from clients. Since you don't need a full-fledged HTTP server, that is probably the way to go!

Answer 5

I don't know any C# http server, but you could make your own pretty quickly (see http://www.codeplex.com/webserver).

As suggested, lighthttpd might do the trick.

I'd also recommend simpleweb, which is a very light and powerful http server written in Java.
